WATCH: Mosque Burned, Cars Torched as Citizens Take to Streets to Protest “Refugees”

German Chancellor Angela Merkel recently traveled to the city of Dresden to celebrate the anniversary of Germany’s reunification following the end of the Cold War, but the reception she received was not at all what she had likely been expecting.

Instead of being greeted warmly and embraced by the crowd, she was instead harangued with shouts of “Merkel must go” and other cries from indignant citizens demanding her immediate resignation, according to the U.K. Express.

The protests, which also included at least three police cars being set ablaze and two bombs exploding outside of a mosque, were most likely fomented in opposition to Merkel’s highly unpopular “open-door” policy regarding the mass influx of Muslim migrants and refugees into the country.

It was believed that the protests were organized by the Dresden-based political organization Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamisation of the West, which as one might imagine was wholly opposed to Merkel’s immigration policies.

Many of the protesters also branded Merkel a “traitor” and carried signs displaying Merkel in a Nazi uniform, describing the government she has led as being nothing less than a “dictatorship.”

There were no known injuries stemming from the bomb blasts at the mosque or the burning of the police cars. As would be expected, security has been greatly tightened around Merkel and other government officials who have drawn the ire of a populace they have largely ignored for years.

Sadly, this angry and destructive display by the protesters could have been avoided if Merkel and her cronies had only taken the time to actually listen to the concerns of native Germans regarding the influx of Muslim refugees that has caused so many problems in the country over the past couple of years, from a stagnating economy to rising crime and a shift from traditional German culture to make way for Shariah-aligned cultural norms.

Please share this on Facebook and Twitter to help show the seemingly inevitable response of the citizenry toward its leaders who have been essentially ignoring them and working against their interests for far too long.
